6 months

Our little Brody Boy is a growing weed. He is half a year old and gets cuter by the moment in our eyes. He is definitely showing us what he does and does not like. He wants to put ANYTHING into his mouth and will grab any object that is in front of him. He still loves the Frog-Duck disc toy and will break out into a full on cry if he drops it (which he does a lot). We are determined that he is capable of sitting up but he has no intentions of putting forth the efforts. He thinks Addie is stinkin hilarious and laughs at her high pitched voice she always uses to talk to him. Brody still loves to be held..all the time...and is working on his afternoon naps to lengthen them out for mom to work. We are making baby steps with the baby food since I wanted to wait until after Disneyland (pictures coming) to jump full force. He tried bananas for the first time the last two nights and seems to like them. I let him like my homemake apple juice popsicle today and he was in heaven. All in all, he is perfect.




Addie is still wearing here Christmas jammies...she LOVES them. Please note: it's been in the 90's here lately and she still wants them on.

Mother's Day and Baby Dedication

Our church does baby dedications on Mother's Day so it was time to have both kids dedicated. It was sweet to have them presented together with Mimi and Papa by our sides. I found myself a bit teary eyed as Pastor John prayed over each other our beautiful kids asking the Lord to guide and protect their paths. We spent the rest of the day hanging out as a family relaxing around the house.

We start them early in our house...here is one of many pictures taken by Addie. She loves using the point and shoot.

Easter {part 2}

All dressed up and ready for church and the Easter festivities.




Pictures from April

The point and shoot camera was finally off loaded. Here are a few pictures from April. We packed up the family and went to the circus while in was in town. Addie had a good time but I think the adults enjoyed it more. It was 2 hours long and she wasn't too impressed with the high wire acts...she just wanted to see the animals. We acted like the tourist parents and paid for Addie to ride an elephant. It was awesome. In between fearing she was going to fall off the creature, it was fun to watch her smile as it walked around. Brody eat/slept the whole time...so he like it too. :)
